Everyone loves a comeback story. That’s because, generally, they don’t happen. If you’re down often enough, that means you’re out. When you defy those odds, it makes a compelling narrative. That’s true in the NBA as well.
When a player appears to have outgrown their usefulness, and they start playing well again, fans around the league love it – even if he’s not on their team.
Kemba Walker may be authoring his own comeback story.
In four games for the Dallas Mavericks, he’s performed fairly well. His career was looking pretty bleak, but he may have found a second wind.
The Los Angeles Lakers are a team that’s pretty desperate for some quality guard play. Could they look to pursue a trade for Walker?
Could the Mavericks trade him anyway?
